Home Renovation Interior Designers in Alwarpet
Many Alwarpet homes were built decades ago as spacious apartments or independent bungalows, and their owners now want modern lighting, kitchens and wardrobes without losing the generous proportions. Elixir's renovation designers begin with a full site audit before suggesting any changes.

Planning interiors in Alwarpet
A quiet, upscale enclave of luxury apartments and large independent homes along TTK Road and the Cathedral Road corridor.
- Older Alwarpet bungalows and flats often have wiring that cannot handle modern lighting scenes and multiple air conditioners. We plan electrical upgrades before new carpentry.
- High ceilings and large windows in these homes are worth preserving. Our designers plan around them rather than lowering ceilings unnecessarily.
- Existing solid wood doors, frames and some built-ins can be restored and reused where sound, which saves cost and keeps character.
- Wall levels in older homes may need correction before tall lacquer or veneer panels go up, which adds to the preparation scope.

Plan smarter
Five ways to keep your budget on track
- 01
Start with a full site audit
Have walls, wiring, plumbing and damp checked before design. Quoting without an audit leads to revisions later.
- 02
Decide what to keep
List doors, built-ins and fixtures you want to retain before demolition begins.
- 03
Upgrade electricals first
Add circuits for lighting scenes and appliances before carpentry, to avoid cutting into new units.
- 04
Lock the design before demolition
Changing plans after walls are opened adds cost and delay. Approve drawings fully first.
- 05
Plan for family disruption
If you are living at home, agree on room sequencing and dust control with the designer.

FAQ
Questions homeowners ask
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
Can old woodwork be reused?
Where it is sound, solid wood doors and frames can be restored. The designer assesses condition during the site audit and suggests what to keep.
Do I need to move out during renovation?
For light work, we can phase rooms so you stay. Extensive civil or electrical work may be easier if the family moves temporarily.
Why does renovation need a site audit?
Older homes can hide weak wiring, damp or uneven walls. Inspecting first keeps the estimate realistic and avoids surprises.
Are civil costs included in package ranges?
No. Package ranges cover interiors. Demolition, rewiring, damp treatment and flooring are estimated separately.
How long does a renovation take?
It depends on the civil scope. Carpentry production typically takes 15–20 working days after design approval, after any repair work is done.
